Marlon Brando, an Actor Named Desire | SLICE WHO | FULL DOCUMENTARY

- Summer 1943. A young 19-year-old man arrives in New York with just a few dollars in his pocket. His dream was to become the greatest actor in the world. Eleven years later, after appearing in the film A Streetcar Named Desire, The Wild One and On the Waterfront, he earned the title “king of actors”.
Brando excited our imagination and generated more clichés than any other star with his aura, powerful performances, extravagant beauty, rebel attitude, and a career path that had never been seen before in the history of cinema. But there was another person hidden behind the Hollywood image: a private, secret Brando. Away from the spotlights, his life was a dark novel, a never-ending road leading to increasing neurosis and self- destruction.

Wow. Ignoring the fact that the actress Maria Schneider in The Last Tango in Paris has said that she was raped during the movie. In 2024. I thought you wanted to make an honest documentary. But you didn't. Sexism never dies, does it. Cowardly.

Absolutely Brilliant documentary. The Best Marlon Brandon doc I've seen ... Kudos 💯👌
me too! awesome and real
I agree
Marlon Brando was very intellectual & way ahead of his time on all issues. If by chance he questioned anything, he immediately researched & found the answer. Most of the time, he already knew the answer. His mind was always at work. His close friend Karl Malden called him a genius. He truly was! RIP Marlon Brando🙏💔🤴♥️ You are an Icon that will NEVER be duplicated‼️I think he's the most gorgeous guy I've ever seen‼️🫅♥️🫅♥️🫅♥️🫅
Definitely NOT in this lifetime or even the lifetime.
@@morgantylerv9406He was an interesting individual.
A great actor, and an even greater human being. His contributions to civil rights and Indian rights made him a hero in my eyes.
The "indian" he sent to turn down his Academy Award was a Mexican, yet she pretended to speak for the Native American people. Kinda phony, don't you think.
In my eyes too‼️
He was woke back in the 60s...you like woke?
@@capoislamort100 I feel EXACTLY THE SAME‼️🤴❤️
@@capoislamort100 Hero × millions‼️
He so lived, the sadness of him. He overflowed the wonder of him. This should be shared with everyone that , had a painful life.
I feel all of my hard , painful , existence through his sad , sad nightmare. I love him more having watched this
I suffer as well have had a mild disability ALL of my life so I CAN relate to Marlon’s suffering as well I have ALSO prayed for his soul as he is one of my ALL time FAV actors like….EVER! 😍 I just love him
Yes you are so right
You are a creative writer:))
@@kroselove I'm glad for you. There's ALWAYS someone better off than you & someone worse off than you. That GOES FOR EVERYONE‼️
This is an awesome biography...it should be taught at schools and universities !
Thank you very much for your support ! Don't hesitate to subscribe ;)
I just want to wish one of the greatest actors of all time on what today would have been his 100th birthday. How influential he is, both as an performer and his influence. Happy 100th to the one and only Marlon Brando. 😊
Happy birthday darling marlon.
Your last name remind me of Marlon's second wife, Movita Castaneda. Are you one of their descendants?
@@kukukakikakakkukaku
I wish 😅
Extraordinary man. Shades of many colours and,in his day, a brooding hunk❤RIP
@@angelcastaneda529 I can't imagine Brando being 100‼️🤷♀️😲
Marlon wasn't lazy for no reason(s)...Marlon was severely depressed and self sabotaged his personal life and his acting career, all the avoidances and negative actions made it worse yet he chose them anyway. Maybe deep down he felt if he was lazy to do anything then in a way the cycle of destruction would end too.
Sad that he became like his father maybe worse and his personal life especially the children were deeply bothered too. Not a healthy environment from any Parent it seems.
I feel if Marlon cared for anything he too wouldn't have ended so alone and emotional baggages. May he have peace and had a clear perspective from above. 🕊
Νομιζω πως εζησε οπως εκεινος ηθελε ολοι λετε για την καταθλιψη εγω δε βλεπω μονο εναν ανθρωπο με καταθλιψη ,βλεπω εναν ανθρωπο που εκανε τα παντα στη ζωη του πονεσε,ερωτευτηκε,επαναστατησε,βοηθησε ανθρωπους .Στην ουσια μια μερα του Μαρλον ειναι ολη η ζωη χιλιαδων ανθρωπων .Εζησε μια γεματη ζωη οπως την ηθελε κ αυτο ειναι που μετραει.Εμεις ουτε τα μισα δεν εχουμε ζησει σε σχεση μ αυτον
Marlon Brando is the greatest actor because of his unmatched acting range. From 1950-60 he played a paraplegic in THE MEN, Stanley Kowalski in A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, a Mexican revolutionary in VIVA ZAPATA, Mark Anthony, a Hell's Angel in THE WILD ONE. Terry Malloy in ON THE WATERFRONT, Napoleon in DESIREE, sang and danced in GUYS AND DOLLS, a Japanese man in TEAHOUSE OF THE AUGUST MOON, a contrite nazi in YOUNG LIONS then directed ONE EYED JACKS.
You can't seem to keep your eyes off of him‼ "Marlon Brando had the most gorgeous face‼" His facial features are perfect in every way‼️There will NEVER be a Marlon Brando, at least not in this lifetime. RIP Marlon Brando, YOU are an ICON in the 1st degree‼️🫅♥️🙏💔
Happy 100 years young on April 3 this year to the one and only King Marlon Brando. One of the most genius brilliant actors who really directed himself in his roles. So handsome and sexy. Amazing Aries energy and personality. 😍🥰😘🎉🎂🎁🎈🥳❤️🔥 🥵 🤤 ♈️ 👑 💎 ⚜️🏆
happy heavenly bday Marlon luv you! 😍
Marlon Brando just oozes with uncontrollable sensuality ❤ he was born georgious 😍🥰🤩😘💋!!!!
Superb documentary! We never know what pain others endure, even when they seem to have it all.
Phenomenal actor.
I remember his standing up for civil rights, like Tony Bennett. He stood against racism, even when it could have damaged his career.
I hope that he found some respite from his personal demons. He gave a lot to the world through his talent. RIP!

It was easy for him to get women but it was difficult to get rid of them.😩be careful what you wish for.
Lololol.
Marlon Brando was not a method actor. He was a Stella Adler fan, and she had the most influence on his a style of acting. It was emotional acting as opposed to method acting.
Wednesday 3rd April was the 100th anniversary of his birth.
happy heavenly belated birthday Brando 🥰
Wow‼️🙏♥️
happy belated heavenly 100th birthday Brando! 😍
One of an kind.
“Do my methods offend you?” “I don’t see any method …at all.”
There are a lot of great actors past and present, but there will NEVER be anyone who supparsed Marlon Brando ❤❤❤
Marlon es unico.
Ka cantidad de "personajes" q creo!!!
Genius actor, great humanitarian, thoughtful thinker and sexy as hell ., Ladies and Gentlemen Mr Marlon Brando ❤️🥂
This documentary is simply SUPERB!
For me, Marlon Brando has always been the greatest actor ever.
And this has to be the best documentary on the great man I have watched to date. Well done! 👏
@@mevdinc Definitely well stated‼️
People always say A Streetcar Named Desire was his film debut. I am glad this documentary shows us that it was actually The Men, playing an angry young paraplegic. I actually was in the audience of a movie theatre when they were asking all sorts of trivia questions, and the person who named Streetcar as Brando's first movie role got the prize.
This is by far the best documentary ive come across of darling Marlon Brando the original rebel in golden age of hollywood.
How are there not more comments and likes? Excellent job...
No mention of the greatest film of all time? One Eyed Jacks?!?!
When he landed in New York he must have thought thank god I’m free from that hell.
He was also on Broadway in I Remember Mama when he was younger
And Truckline Cafe, in which he walked on as a minor character and just took over the stage. From Wikipedia:
Truckline Cafe was the title of a 1946 Broadway play written by Maxwell Anderson, directed by Harold Clurman, produced by Elia Kazan, and starring Marlon Brando and Karl Malden. The short-lived play ran only 10 performances and is best remembered today for the fact that each night Brando would run up and down a flight of stairs prior to an entrance to induce an effectively frenzied demeanor for one of the scenes. The play is noted for Brando's first major appearance on Broadway, during which he garnered attention for an unusually intense performance which presaged his later work on A Streetcar Named Desire. (And all this after ten performances!)
Amazing documentary ❤
Thank you very much for supporting us ! Don't hesitate to subscribe ;)
This was good. Thanks.
Marlon Brando, beautiful and talented maverick like Mickey Rourke. Forces of nature, if we control them, we loose them. They still are the stardust in our eyes. 💫
when Monty was sensitive and incredibly gorgeous, Marlon was magnetic and sensula/sexual - both were so talented
Both were born and raised in Omaha too.
Оба талантливые красавцы самородки ❤️ 💖
Outstanding documentary 💯 I loved very minute of it ❤ thank you for this amazing doc of one of the best Marlon Brando 💫
Most people don’t seem to realize how powerful their words and actions have on others. Here’s a guy who had everything but couldn’t fully enjoy it because of all the battle scars from childhood. They don’t leave you unless your able to heal it. Then he spent most of his life sitting on a set waiting.
Κανεις λαθος στο βιβλιο του βλεπω εναν ανθρωπο που ηξερε να κανει την αυτοκριτικη του κατι που οι περισσοτεροι δε κανουν .Εκεινος παραδεχτηκε τα λαθη του,τα παθη του και ολα αυτα που περασε κ βρηκε τη δυναμη να συγχωρησει αυτους που τον εβλαψαν.Ηταν σπουδαιος ανθρωπος
He was a good actor but, in my opinion, a little overrated. I think people's fascination with Brando stems primarily from his unbelievable good looks. The man just oozed sheer animal magnetism. Some people just seem to attract mesmerizing attention in a way that defies description or explanation. Elvis had it as well, people couldn't take their eyes off them, and it didn't matter if the gazer was male or female.
Reminds me of Morrison. Had it all and grew to wanting to have nothing to do with it at all.
Вы забыли об их таланте ❤
@@sherwoodgladiator2694 Brando had talent. I'm not denying that. He was a very good actor. However, he has also been called a screen genius, and the greatest actor of all time, by many. There are a good number of very talented people in the film industry and in my opinion more so than Marlon Brando. Brando mumbled all the time and could never remember his lines if he bothered to learn them at all. Everything Brando had to say in a scene had to be written down for him on cue cards that were placed around the film set so he could glance at them and then say his lines. I find that appalling and very unprofessional.
No I'm sorry, Marlon Brando was talented but no more so than many other good stars. People's obsession with him stems wholly from his amazing, good looks in my opinion. He was unbelievably striking to look at, and certainly charismatic.
However, those two qualities don't make you the greatest actor of all. That is nonsense. I might also add that the only reason Brando got away with his unprofessionalism and his laziness was because he WAS so good looking , the camera loved him. IF HE DIDNT HAVE THAT FACE, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN FIRED BY FILM DIRECTORS AND PRODUCERS A LONG TIME AGO, AND NOBODY WOULD EVER HAVE HEARD OF HIM.
Thank you for your response.
@@andrewmiller4885 Да это верно и жаль что он не мог распорядиться своим талантом более продуктивно для себя и общества, каким узнал его мир 🤝
@@sherwoodgladiator2694 Yes it is a great pity, I totally agree with you there. However, Brando was a very damaged person, his upbringing is a sad story.
Marlon Brando was an utterly neglected child from two alcoholic parents. His violent father ridiculed him continually and his mother was never home. Marlon as a child had to go looking for her in bars and clubs and hotel rooms.
Thank you for your reply.
That opening image shows how incredibly good looking he was.
35:00 I hate this perpetuated put down that James Dean was just copying Marlon Brando. There is no denying he was an admirer of his, most actors coming up at that time were, but to claim that Brando was the first to wear casual clothing and ride a motorcycle is absurd and therefore anyone else that has the vaguest of similarities is unoriginal and they must be copying Brando. It's just lazy conjecture that demeans Dean.
Marlon was a genius at his craft 🎯that he contempted of. Deep insecurities that plagued him . Nature has its way. As an artist TQ🎯
One of the top actor in Hollywood
"His only friends are the animals"💞
I don’t believe the man in your thumbnail is Marlon Brando. I could be wrong, but you might check it.
Just got to the point where he gets to play Mark Anthony in Julius Caesar,…. Reminds of the time when we went to a screening of this film, especially for Secondary School pupils, …. A roar went up , we the film got stuck, at the beginning of the “Friends, Romans & countrymen speech”,…Quite fitting & we all enjoyed that moment ! 😊
Hi
He was great as Napoleon Bonaparte. Probably because he looked like him!
They don't make them anymore ike they used to.
Who are "they"?
No, they still make psychopaths. But they prefer acting in politics and other positions of power these days
Brando is to acting like Maradona is to football and Marlon was the Maradona of acting, so if you think of the great generation from actors like Robert De Niro, Al Pacino or Dustin Hoffman, they became actors because of Marlon Brando. Then, Happy 100th birthday Marlon.
💯 ❤️✋🙏👏👏👏
You didn't mention the fugitive kind from 1960, a dark piece with lots of shadow work
Well, well, well, we've got a true connoiseur among us! Thanks a bunch for highlighting that gem! Now, spill the beans: what's your top pick from the Brando movie collection?
Погоня, Трамвай Желание, Молодые львы 💎
A great bio pic! As a young NYC actor many years ago, I knew actors/people in the theater who knew and hung with him. One of those was a great off-Broadway director and acting teacher Gene Frankel. He was a "downtown" legend who worked with everyone and had attended the Actors Studio when Brando was there. He and Brando were on the Studio softball team (a little-known fact in NY theater is that during the summer big-time theater groups and Broadway shows have teams that play against one another). Gene said Brando would play outfield and try to catch the ball with his feet and other such "I-don't-give-a-shit" behavior. Gene said "He was not a team player, Marlon". So it made me laugh when the narrator says the same thing about him in this video.
Why wouldn't they use a real picture of Brando? That doesnt even look like him!
There are plenty of photos of Brando. Why use a model?
I think it’s AI generated
Thank you for this. Video I hadn’t seen before. Great job.
Marlon Brando is the most gorgeous guy I've ever seen! Brando is a part of the trifecta of the 3 greatest actors in cinema history. Montgomery Clift, Marlon Brando, and James Dean. They were all method actors, but each had their very own acting style! They will go down as the 3 GREATEST actors in cinema history! God Bless them & RIP🙏💔🤴♥️🫅♥️🤴♥️ The 3 of you are very sadly missed‼️
Why ask God to bless dead people? If you are a follower/believer in Christ as God in the flesh, you go to heaven which is the greatest blessing. If not, the Bible is very explicit, you end up in the lake of fire for eternity. Pray for salvation for the living.
@SaltyChips-dh3mp Name one unequivocal verse in the Bible which states that Jesus peace be upon him is God and that we should worship him.
One who is born to the stomach of a woman and who according to you died on the cross is what happens to humans not God.
If you think not having a father makes you God, then Adam peace be upon him must be an even greater God because he had neither father nor mother.
I would advise you to study Islam, it is possible you might profit from the experience.
Don’t forget the actor who invented naturalistic performance: Charles Laughton.
@@BLTKellysquien es Chaeles??
En realidad "el método" lo creo Konstantin Stanislavski....y llega a Brando a través de Estela Adler...se suma a ese "metodo" el ralento NATURAL de Marlon.
@@mariacristinaparedesojeda1809 Charles Laughton is credited with bringing naturalistic acting to film in the 1930s.
This documentary could be a feature film.
Too causual narrative vioce to a foreigner. and it is better the documentary be cut into two halves.
what a STUPENDOUS documentary! 😊 I LUV Brando 😍
In the end, it all ended in ruins
There are the films.
This is tremendous
Brilliant title!
The greatest American actor of all time.

Good documentary - good job.
beautiful documentary and lovely jazz
A great actor, 👍 he could emote feelings on the screen, like no other actor, very handsome and intelligent he really had it all he was one of a kind, and will never be replaced rip marlon❤ gone but never forgotten🎉
💝 📽️ 🌹🕯️🌠
After 15 minutes watching this great documentary I thought he must be an Aries, I googled him, and of course he was!
He was Beautiful 💕
Well done. This documentary is about as good as they get. Brilliant
This is a great documentary on Marlon
Interesting to see him speaking perfect French! This man was full of surprises.
Marlon Brando was a looker even as a child. 👱♥️

This is a very good channel, thanks buddy 😊following
The Brilliant Marlon Brando what a talented actor he was and may he rest in Peace
He didn't know what he had and pushed it away making his life hell. Such a shame. Would have been amazing to see him be more engaged rather than enraged.
He understands he was very damaged in childhood but he never was serious about recovering from the parental abuse.
Have to agree with so many of the other comments: this is an excellent documentary about a most remarkable man. I learned recently that his library contained over 4k books.
Thank you Slice Who? for making this available. ✌🏼
Amazing documentary
It's a shame that you shy away from his homosexuality. It's not fair to who he was overall.
No Marlon will ever be born again. Cinema and its lovers will miss him forever.
The Monty erasure is WILD.
From the desk dead drop to the floor. No imminent front. Living in character required transformation.
This is the first time I’ve ever seen this and I am shocked to know that someone who lives in a parallel life to me I am now on a journey
That's not even him in the thumbnail!
I WOULDN'T be sorry with a guy who looks like Marlon Brando‼️He's by far♥️🤴 the🫅♥️ MOST♥️🤴 GORGEOUS GUY I'VE♥️🫅 EVER🫅 SEEN & HE'S the🎬🎞🎬 GREATEST🎬 ACTOR in CINEMA🎬 HISTORY‼️There will NEVER be another Marlon Brando, NOT in this lifetime‼️
ROBERT REDFORD WAS BETTER LOOKING, AND SO WAS PAUL NEWMAN, AND SO WAS WILLIAM SHATNER, AND SO WAS TROY DONAHUE, AND SO WAS MARIO LANZA, AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON!
THERE WERE ALSO MANY ACTORS GREATER THAN HIM !
To each his own. Everybody has their favorite & mine is Marlon Brando, followed by Montgomery Clift & James Dean& Paul Newman‼️🫅♥️🫅♥️🫅♥️🫅♥️@user-es4jq8dp8z
this was great thank you!
If Marlon had played the Hollywood game the way less talented actors like eg Robert Taylor did he would have been, by far, the biggest box office star in history by a country mile... ...he could play almost any role & peel an orange at the same time!... ...but... ...Like predecessors John Gilbert & Errol Flynn & in modern times Jennifer Anniston, parental abuse caused him to hate some forms of authority... ...perhaps a professional psychologist can work this out but self distructive urges seemed to lead him to sabotage his own career!
Handsome ❤
Wow! A great doc!
A time when hats resemble the cat bowls of white plastic today.
Some people have everything and they are really happy Brando had everything and never really knew what happiness was sad genius.
Very elaborated for a guy with video editing skill and a job for making content
It’s sad that today everyone refers to Brando as a joke, known more for his obesity & tragic ending. They either choose to forget or are simply too young to even be aware of what a beautiful man he once was & the fascinating career he had. I had a friend who was dating Loretta Young’s daughter in the early fifties. He was at her mother’s home one evening when the doorbell rang. With Loretta & her daughter upstairs & the butler having been given the evening off he opened the door. He said standing before him was a young man who apologized & shyly inquired about an address he was looking for but was unable to locate. My friend pointed him in the right direction & bid him goodnight. It wasn’t until many months later he came to realize the young man was Marlon Brando, then newly arrived in Hollywood & getting all the buzz as the hottest young actor on the scene. My friend added, “I’ll tell you this. I was 100% straight & being in my twenties myself, enjoying dating many young starlets. BUT…Marlon Brando at that time was the most attractive man I’d ever seen before or since, and if I’d been alone who knows what may have happened!”
There are other more indepth docummentaries about Brando wh8ch show his reality off screen 😢❤
Amazing Actor but chilhood trauma extremeley marred him in many ways❤😢
Marlon led a sad life in my opinion
And he was a rebel
But that is a price to pay dying alone and unhappy
Elia Kazan did nothing wrong. "The thug". yeah right
When you dance with the devil, there are consequences! Now... I'm going to watch, 'Jeanne du Barry: The Glittering Life and Gruesome Death of King Louis XV's Mistress'
Marlon Brando est fait du même bois que tout ceux qui, actrices et acteurs, sont morts en pleine gloire. Sauf que lui a vieilli ; mais sa personnalité et son époque cinématographique pouvait parfaitement le destiner à 1 fin dite tragique
he monty and jimmy
Bro Marlon looks like a bunch of different famous actors today
Ни на кого не похож! Уникален и неповторим ! 👏🙏 Ещё Монтгомери Клифт 💔🕯️
Poor Jocelyn! She really had her work cut out for her!
He really enjoyed rich creamy butter 😮😮😮
He looked a lot like his dad.
